ROSH  HASHANAH

 Rosh haShanah, The Feast Of Trumpets, is the Jewish New Year

Rosh haShanah IS a Sabbath but is NOT a High Holy Day!

Eschatologists consider Rosh haShanah (Yom Teru'ah) the most likely day that Ye-shu'a (Jesus) will return to the earth a second time, but Eschatologists cannot discern exactly WHICH YEAR Ye-shu'a (Jesus) will return.

Rosh haShanah is called "The Day That No-One Knows"
because it is the only Hebrew Feast / Festival day that falls on the first day of a month (Rosh Chodesh).

Since the first day of any Hebrew month depends on the sighting of the first tiny sliver of the next waxing moon following a new moon, no-one knows exactly when Rosh haShanah will begin until the next waxing moon is sighted and the 7th Hebrew month (Tishri) is officially declared to have begun.

>Rosh haShanah, the New Year, and Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement, are two very important holidays in the Jewish calendar.

However, modern Hebrews attribute far more importance to both of them than is actually warranted, justifiable or even defensible.

Modern Hebrews consider Rosh haShanah and Yom Kippur (and the days between them) to be ""text-decoration: underline;">THE" High Holy Days.

Whereas this is not God's opinion, for God has NOT declared either Rosh haShanah or Yom Kippur a High Holy Day.

The three High Holy Days established by God are:

But, remember that
there actually are "text-decoration: underline;">NO Hebrew or Jewish Holy Days,
for there are only GOD'S Holy Days
which the Sons of Israel were commanded to faithfully observe
as their form of worship of The God Of Abraham.

The Old Testament Holy Days were ordained by God as

(High Holy Days), the God-ordained "Pilgrimage" Sabbaths?

The following are modern Hebrew "BELIEFS" about Rosh haShanah.
These are man-made traditions and customs that were not derived from the Hebrew's Holy Scriptures (Torah, Tanakh) but emerged during, and have evolved since, the Babylonian Diaspora, and have been greatly expanded upon in the Talmud (Rabbinical commentaries).

On Rosh haShanah, Jews all over the world gather in synagogues to celebrate the day HaShem (God) created Adam and Khavah, the first humans.
BUT, in the Bible, Khavah (Woman) was created at some later date following the creation of Adam.

Rosh haShanah starts on the first day of Tishri and lasts two days. Rosh haShanah is the beginning of the Yamim Noraim, the ten days of atonement.
BUT, in the Bible, Rosh haShanah lasts for only one day, and Yom Kippur is the only (solitary) day of atonement.

And, in the Bible, God has NOT attached any special significance to the eight days between Rosh haShanah and Yom Kippur.

WHO are YOU going to believe?   God, MAYBE?

These examples give cause to suspect that modern Hebrew religious authorities, the Orthodox Jews, have never even read their OWN Holy Scriptures because they give undue precedence to Rabbinical commentaries (Talmud, et. al.) while ignoring the "LAW" (Torah) and their Holy Scriptures (Tanakh).

Among scripturally astute individuals, much amusement is derived from noting the differences between the beliefs and practices (the customs and traditions) of modern-day "cultural" Hebrews as opposed to what The God Of Abraham has revealed to them in the Holy Scriptures.

The Hebrews possess the "Oracles Of God", yet the Hebrews cannot make any sense out of them at all.

For even if Hebrews actually DO read their own Holy Scriptures,
it is obvious that they do not understand what they are reading.

It is IMAGINED that on Rosh haShanah, all mankind is judged. That HaShem (The God Of Abraham) writes the judgment for each person in the Book of Life. It is IMAGINED that this judgment is based on people's lives for the year before, and is the decision of what will happen to each person in the coming year.

It is further IMAGINED that the judgment is not final. That the days between Rosh haShanah and Yom Kippur give people a time to change the judgment for good. It is IMAGINED that each person is given the chance to improve their coming year through Teshuvah (asking forgiveness), Tefillah (prayer), and Tzedakah (charity).

On Rosh haShanah Hebrews wish each other "L'Shanah Tovah Tikatevuh" may you be written in for a good year. But, it is only IMAGINED that Rosh haShanah is not the end of the judgment, and it is further IMAGINED that only on Yom Kippur that judgment is made final.

The above are man-made practices, traditions and customs. They are NOT Biblical teachings, they are NOT God-given beliefs.
